Price check 124D Turbo

Hi All,

After many happy years of dieseldom I'm probably going to sell my 124 and wanted to get a better handle on fair value. I realize these are priced all over the place but the more input I have the better.

1987 White/Palomino
176K miles
No rust at all (CA car from new), shiny paint
A couple of minor fender benders - now fixed except for one minor ding
No major accidents
Interior 8 out of ten, front seats recovered with matching MB Tex, dash like new
A/C works fine but anemic (134A conversion long ago)
Everything else works - this is my second diesel and I do 90% of the upkeep
Original 14 head with no overheating or signs of problems
Aftermarket (Sony) stereo headunit with bluetooth phone and iPod connection
Tires almost new
Have used B100 occasionally with no issues
Regular oil changes using Redline diesel oil

I've owned her for about 8 years and it's been a terrific, reliable car. Unfortunately my daughter (who now drives it) is headed off to college in snow country and hasn't a clue how to drive in the slippery stuff. As a result we're moving to a FWD or 4WD that she can use at school. What do you think? On Ebay I see rats selling for $1k and the rare superlow creampuffs for $7K. I appreciate the feedback.
